Future Support for Linux?

Hi..   That other thread is getting really, really long, so I thought I'd pose a question here, for someone from Dropbox to answer, rather than the complaints and rants in the other thread. :-) ...

    Moved on now, disabled the auto-payment in paypal, and shifting to Google Drive + insync.  Sent a newsletter to all of my clients suggesting the same.

     

    I'll drop back to free DB for a couple of club things I have shared into the dropbox account and just use the web UI.

     

    So annoying, but Dropbox have burnt the bridge for me.

HI There - although this has been answered, I thought I'd get my five penneth in.

Since dropbox announced their intention to remove support for my fs (XFS), I've been looking around for a solution.  I initially tried emailing dropbox, but their reply was not satisfactory and they blew me off. I was a paying customer of theirs, but not any more.

I tried google drive and insync, but drive doesn't reliably upload photos at full resolution, and insync is $30.  I now use pCloud and the associated linux app, that is considerably cheaper than dropbox and offers pretty much the same functionality, has support for all my devices, and hasn't suffered data breaches like dropbox has.

Cheerio dropbox - your loss.
